SeanS can you get a close up of the handlebars. I've been curious how the nightster would look with the dragbars.

I don't really remember what p/n they are. I bought them last May before the black mini apes came out. I just saw them in the HD dealership and bought them, bead blasted them, and had them powder coated with the sissy bar, and signal relocation brackets.

Check out my photo gallery for some pics with the signals relocated.

Nice bike. I like where you have yours mounted. Is that the HD relocation kit?

What is the width of you handle i am trying to put some on my nightster and they are hitting the tank after mounting the controls back on the bars. Mine are 27" wide. Can you give me the dimensions of yours.

What do you fellas think about losing the front signals altogether?.... Other than the obvious potential legal ramifications.... Can you see any major negatives?This is one option that I am considering, when I do my upcoming handlebar change.

I'd love to take mine off all together. I think it would clean it would look much better. Other than legal issues, it may affect your brake lights and running lights depending on how the circuit it ran. I would just unplug the front signal lights and make sure everything else works just fine. Just my .02

They don't make a relocation kit in black. To me the one from harley makes your lights stick out too far when you move them. J P cycles has some good options, but you will have to paint or powder them black. I made mine myself just like one guy shows you in the DIY section here. Works perfect!

Here in OK it is not required that you have signals. But you DO have to have mirrors. I rode around for a long time with no mirrors and NEVER got hassled by the man. They don't care around here. You wouldn't believe how many bikes I see with no signals, no mirrors, and no speedometer.
